    Things are blooming there right now?! It’s the dead of winter here. Pretty desolate at the moment. We’ve got 2 feet of snow on the ground. It’s nice to see green grass in your pics.

    Tree frogs are out making love too, but they will have to find cover for the next few nights. I’ve seen a few sets of Hawks pairing up. Yup NC has sprung spring. :banana:

    Yeah, I heard spring peepers hollering Thursday. I imagine they got a little shake up last night, and will tonight too.

    That is a different type of witch hazel than we have. I think it is called witch hazel shrub. Ours don't get those reds.

    I see human figures in trees wherever I go, including this "happy" Saguaro.

    Small sugar maple trunk "eating" a dead red cedar limb. The cedar will last for years and the maple was growing around it. IMG_4466.JPG

    This pic belongs in the FHC gallery. The last sight many an unsuspecting black locust log will ever see!
